UGA student reports fraud

A University of Georgia student living in an off-campus home reported to Athens-Clarke police that on Tuesday she received an email from a company promising to reduce her student loan debt through a program offered by President Obama.

The woman said she called the number listed and while talking to the woman, she provided her Social Security number and date of birth. She became suspicious the company is a fraud and has placed a fraud alert on her credit.
